Parameters
dwUserIndex _In_Type: DWORD Index of the gamer associated with the device; a value in the range of 0 to
XUSER_MAX_COUNT - 1.
pState _Out_Type: XINPUT_STATE* Pointer to an XINPUT_STATE object that receives the current state of the controller.

Remarks
This function reports the left and right triggers separately. In DirectInput, the two triggers shared the same axis. The XInputGetStateWithToken function is similar but allows the caller to supply a D3DX frame pipeline token to associate a specific input reading with a graphics frame for later analysis in PIX. For more information, see The XInputOnGameInput wrapper.Requirements
